First Edition / First Printing. As New in Fine Dust Jacket. 48 pages. Collection of color photographs presented as an Artist Book. Limited Edition of 500 copies. An austerely elegant production by Karin Apollonia Muller and Chris Pichler: Oversize-volume format. Pale gray cloth boards with photographic reproduction pasted on the recessed center. Photographs by Karin Apollonia Muller. There is no text. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper to the highest standards. In glassine DJ with black titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents Karin Apollonia Muller's "On Edge". Her much-awaited second collection, which took her more than eight years to complete. "While 'Angels in Fall' (2001) dealt with the disconnect between human beings and their environment, 'On Edge' shows the earth crumbling away, and our futile efforts to control or hide the subtle invasion of nature into cultivated spaces. Working in color with a muted palette and low contrast, Muller creates powerful images which evoke a sense of displacement in keeping with artist's 'visitor status' as a foreigner in Los Angeles. Born in Heidelberg in 1963, Muller grew up as the daughter of a sea captain. She studied photography and film at the University of Essen before moving to the United States in 1995. Karin Apollonia Muller's work has been widely exhibited in the United States and Europe, and is included in such collections as The Museum of Modern Art New York, The Whitney Museum New York, and The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Karin Apollonia Muller collectors. This copy is one of the Limited Edition of 500 copies, indicated as such by the publisher. It is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the half-title page (right underneath her printed name) by Karin Apollonia Muller. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the Limited Edition still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. Please note: Karin Apollonia Muller did NOT sign most copies of the Limited Edition. A rare signed copy thus. 31 color plates. Karin Apollonia Muller's "Angels In Fall" was selected as one of the greatest photography books in "The Photobook". One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine copy.
